Workplace Violence

The Justice Department reported in 1994 that one-sixth of all violent crimes in the United States occur in the workplace. 

The American Management Association surveyed 500 companies and nearly one-fourth stated that a minimum of one worker had been attacked or murdered on the job since 1990.   Almost one-third stated that a violent incident has occurred more than one time. 

According to the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, guns account for 75% of workplace homicide deaths.

Drago Protective Services, LLC is a specialized security firm that is uniquely qualified to handle violence in the work place.  Both of the firm's founders have a combined 20 years of law enforcement and executive protection experience; moreover, our firm hires a diverse and specialized group of individuals with law enforcement backgrounds to include but not limited to; former Law Enforcement and SWAT Unit Officer's, former Federal and Government Agents, Certified Private Investigators, and experienced Personal Protection Specialists throughout the world.

Our firm offers and utilizes many different approaches and techniques in order to combat violent incidents in the workplace which includes but are not limited to; primarily utilizing active and former law enforcement officers and private investigators as undercover employee plants; and the use of DSA's (Detail Security Agents) with law enforcement and private investigate backgrounds during the employee's termination.

In today's litigious world, the termination of an employee stemming from work place violence issues can and in most cases does create liabilities both criminally and punitively for the employer if these incidents are not handled appropriately; however, these vulnerabilities may be mitigated when corporations make informed and educated decisions in hiring the right security firm.

Drago Protective Service, LLC ensures that our clients and its employees are adequately protected both physically from the subject in the event that the employee becomes violent, as well as legally in the event that credible law enforcement and private investigators testimony is needed to counter any subsequent lawsuits that may be brought against our clients by an employee's termination.
